“There is good chemistry with this team,” assistant coach Jeff Hammond said. “As they work to get better, the chemistry they are building will help them succeed in the big moments of matches.”

With the win, Bulgakova and Dishkova improve to 2-0 as a team and have yet to drop a set.

"Congratulations to Hristina (Dishkova) on earning her first WTA doubles point," continued Hammond.
